A coworker of mine was having a really bad day today. He was super bummed out.
He apparently got caught with a small amount of marijuana in his vehicle, and he's having to take a class. He was working a ton just so he could make ends meet with rent and everything.

I don't know if he has to pay for that class or if he just got a ticket, but dang he was down.
We're both servers, and we have our sections. He was my service partner today, so we are in the same area together.

I don't need money. I don't have bills to pay. And regardless of my views on whether he was getting what he deserved or not, you know what I did? I tried to make his day better.

We were slow and had no customers hardly. So I let him take my tables. I took orders and made salads and whatever he needed, and his mood completely changed. I was wiling to make nothing just to help this guy out.

And what happened? People came. And boy did they come. We got swamped and he made a killing, I did decent. I turned this guy's day around and dang it...............I'm happy.


I've got this fire in me right now, as I type this, of wanting to help people.
If you've never been generous before, start. Because you want this feeling. It's not about me anymore, its about somebody else. The moment you are so focused on somebody else that you forget you exist, for just a moment.............we get a glimpse of true selflessness.


I want all of this feeling. Not just a portion.
Am I boasting of myself? No. I am boasting of the goodness of loving others.
Because it overwhelms my name, my identity. I am nothing but a tool to be used by love.

If this is preachy, I'm sorry. I've just got to let this out of me.

that sounds so cliché im thinking its a copy pasta. but honestly, good for you OP
i dont really feel jack shit after helping people, but i do so anyways
